Tamron 17-70mm F2.8 Review + Sony 16-55mm F2.8 G Comparison

In this video I check out the Tamron 17-70mm F2.8 APSC zoom lens on my A6100 and I compare it to the Sony 16-55mm F2.8 G. A BRIEF Q&A: (1) IS IT BETTER THAN THE SONY 16-55mm? In some ways, yes. It is just as sharp and offers image stabilization. (2) IS IT BETTER THAN THE SONY 18-135mm? Yes. (3) IS IT BETTER THAN THE SONY 18-105mm G? Yes. (4) IS IT BETTER THAN THE ZEISS 16-70mm F4? Duh. The Zeiss is garbage. (5) IS IT BETTER THAN THE SIGMA TRIO? For convenience, yes. But I personally wont be selling my Sigmas for this lens. F1.4 is amazing. (6) SHOULD I BUY IT? If you want a great lens that covers 98% of what most people shoot, that is sharp, has excellent autofocus, built great, and has a nice warranty, YES. (7) SHOULD I SELL MY __________ LENS TO BUY THIS LENS? Probably. this is one of the sharpest zoom lenses I&tested, and for $799, its a bit of a bargain. ——————————————————— Gear That I Use & Recommend: CAMERAS: For Photo & Video For Video APS-C LENSES: FULL FRAME LENSES: AUDIO: LIGHTING: NICE-TO-HAVE ACCESSORIES: Complete Gear List: ——————————————————— Disclosure: Most of the links above are affiliate links, which means at no extra cost to you, I will make a small commission if you click them and make a qualifying purchase.
